The owner of a small cupcake business in Cleveland that was destroyed and looted last month as riots broke out following the death of George Floyd says she’s being threatened with future harm and destruction for cooperating with police.

In an interview with “Fox & Friends” Monday, Kelly Kandah, owner of Colossal Cupcakes, a family business, said the threats include people telling her that if she rebuilds, “it’s going to get hit again.”

......”the Mayor knew of this probability and did nothing”....

The buck stops or starts there....and his relationship with the Police Dept. and Citizens should be solid since he’s been Mayor since 2005?...Maybe time he moves on....

Well, it’s true! :)

Now, more seriously - in the years since then, I’ve done a lot of thinking and a lot of research, and despite what I saw first hand, there was plenty of blame to go around for all ‘races’ in that mess. Not just at the street level either - all the way to the top of city, county and state governments. In the final analysis, I couldn’t honestly point to one ethnic group and say they were responsible for me having to look over a firearm’s sight at another human being.

That said, I *can* point at one group and say they were responsible - stupid, greedy, shortsighted idiots of any and all skin colors. I absolutely hate that group most of all.

“Yes, we are in a mob rule situation now. Our leaders and our institutions that WE PAY FOR have completely failed us. Its up to us now.”

Can we solve the problem with a Trump victory in November?

Holding a point for no good reason, far beyond the hope of reinforcement isn’t honorable, it’s stupid.

If it was some sort of essential business, like a drugstore or grocery store, I could see her point. But it’s a damn cupcake shop. Just go somewhere else and sell your delicious wares.

I don’t know. I would be more confident if the GOP had a backbone and would fight for us, but they won’t.

Ohio has really screwed up laws over defense of property or businesses. Not a great idea.

But this little spike in activity by antifa is going to go away. And that’s an understatement.

We have to flush the Romney and Ryan branches of the GOP from office too. And unfortunately some of them won their primaries this year, like Lindsey Graham.

Cleveland city gov supports BLM’s activities, which Antifa is operating under. Not going away any time soon, dude.

I was so proud of our Officers and the Community Officials for having the sense to organize a response as soon as they got wind a protest march was going to happen. Equally as much our brave vets and citizens who stepped right up to assist.

BTW one guy assulted a police officer, was promptly arrested and charged. This city just won’t put up with the nonsense.

I realize this kind of thing is what these low IQ communists have wanted to do to our country all along, and it’s what they’ve been planning.

But they don’t understand the long term effects. Right now, they’re hysterical about getting Trump out of office and it blinds them to their longer term agenda.

They don’t know what’s coming.

And you’re assuming there will be a big enough backlash.

You know, the Russian nobility assumed there would be enough resistance and backlash to restore order too... how did that work out for them, again?

“why should she have to move from the heart of the city?”

Why? The police didnt protect her business despite the taxes she paid, because the government doesnt respect her role in the community.... tax paying business......because people in her community have said they will destroy her business again (and know the police protect her).

The right question for her is “why should she stay in the heart of the city?”

Rebuild somewhere else.
